Re: Crunch Time... What Do You Do...

we have shifted into over drive (considering we are building 2 of them). We should get both completed and tweaked by monday night for our design review. This last week we held meetings every night (6 - 12am) and saturday 10 - when we all passed out in the morning

Re: Crunch Time... What Do You Do...

Our team meets everyday no matter what anyways, but since it is indeed crunch time we have late late weekends and on weekdays we go till 10pm. At the very moment we are working in our welding shop and it is 10:13...planning on going till 2 a.m.! We bought plenty of coffee and pop all around.

Re: Crunch Time... What Do You Do...

We extend hours. Starting tomorrow morning, we have 36 hours of raw robotics goodness until we pack up our robot Monday night. Today we stayed until about 11:00 when we'd normally leave at 9:00.

Tomorrow we start at 9:00AM and go until 9:00PM (most likely later), and then Sunday, 9:00 - 9:00. Monday there's no school so... 9:00 - 9:00.

Re: Crunch Time... What Do You Do...

If we were in a crunch which we are not thank heavens, we would just extend our hours and go in on sunday. We meet everyday fom about 6:30 am until about 8 at night because we get to work on it in our classes during the day. I have 4 classes a day where I work on the robot which is nice and someone else, one of the other main builders covers the hours I am gone. Then we work from 2:10 pm to about 8 pm unstop.

Re: Crunch Time... What Do You Do...

we are currently staying until the robot is finished. we have cleaned up and are getting ready to call it a night. we will be attending UTC tomorrow but then will come back for more work until the robot ships. we stay every spare second we can and we do not leave until we absolutely have no choice.
